TL;DR
A purely category-theoretic reconstruction of the log scheme S log from the intrinsic structure of the abstract category Sch log (cid:7) /S log is discussed.
Abstract
Let $S^{\log}$ be a locally Noetherian fs log scheme and $\blacklozenge/S^{\log}$ a set of properties of fs log schemes over $S^{\log}$. In the present paper, we shall mainly be concerned with the properties "reduced", "quasi-compact over $S^{\log}$", "quasi-separated over $S^{\log}$", "separated over $S^{\log}$", and "of finite type over $S^{\log}$". We shall write $\mathsf{Sch}_{\blacklozenge/S^{\log}}$ for the full subcategory of the category of fs log schemes over $S^{\log}$ determined by the fs log schemes over $S^{\log}$ that satisfy every property contained in $\blacklozenge/S^{\log}$. In the present paper, we discuss a purely category-theoretic reconstruction of the log scheme $S^{\log}$ from the intrinsic structure of the abstract category $\mathsf{Sch}_{\blacklozenge/S^{\log}}$.
